Help with select list item and dynamics action

G'Day Apex Gurus,
I having problems trying to achieve to trigger the help window of a select item automatically. A help window is triggered when the select item label is clicked but my client would like to be triguered automatically as soon as the user click to see the options in the select list.
I think that I should be able to do it with dynamic actions but I can not get it to work.
I know when someone click on the label of the select list item trigger this JavaScript
javascript:popupFieldHelp('277938589795252851','1545903379570909')
So I want to trigger the javascript also when the user click of the select list item and pull down the options and for that I think that Dynamic actions is the way to go but I can't get it right.
This is what I a doing:
I created a Dynamic option as follow:
Name : test
Sequence: 30
Even: Click
Selection type: Item(s)
Item(s): P1_RATING <- a selection list item
Condtion: - No Condition -
True Actions
Sequence: 10
Action : Execute JavaScript Code
Fire when event result is :True
Fire on page load: ticked
Code: javascript:popupFieldHelp('277938589795252851','1545903379570909')
I appreciate any one who can tell me what i am doing wrong here or provide a solution to my problem of achieving to trigger the help window of a select item automatically.
Kind regards
Carlos

Hi Carlos,
I set up a test case in exactly the same way and it worked fine for me. I created a page item called P1_DA_DEMO and added some static select list values then added some help text. The settings I used are below, I suggest you try again but also make sure you have no other Javascript errors on the page. Use a tool like firebug to check.
Name : Dynamic Action Demo
Sequence: 10
Even: Click
Selection type: Item(s)
Item(s): P1_DA_DEMO <- a selection list item
Condtion: - No Condition -
True Actions
Sequence: 10
Action : Execute JavaScript Code
Fire when event result is :True
Fire on page load: Not Ticked
Code: javascript:popupFieldHelp('277938589795252851','1545903379570909')
Event Scope set a s Bind.
Thanks

Help with Multiselect List Item

Assuming one employee can work for multiple departments, I want to display the departments employee 7844 works for preselected in a multiselect list.
I am using the following query statement in a report region.
select htmldb_item.select_list_from_query_xl(1, deptno ,'select DEPTNO,DNAME from scott.dept ','MULTIPLE HEIGHT=25', 'Y',null,null,null,'Department',null) a from scott.emp where empno = 7844
The result I am seeing is a multiple multiselect lists with one department selected in each list.
How should I modify the query to get what I want?
Thanks
Mina

Help with Select Lists in Classic Report

Hello,
I working with APEX 4.1. Oracle 11.
I have a simple classic report with 4 columns (Username, Role, Read, Update). The Read and Update columns are Select Lists with values of "Yes", "No".
Report looks like this:
Username Role Read Update
JSmith Admin Yes Yes
LJones Dev Yes No
My requirement, is that when a user selects Yes from the Update select list, the value of the associated Read column needs to change to Yes as well for that particular Username. The change has to occur upon selection of Yes from the Update select list.
Im not very strong with javascript, but for testing purposes I applied: onchange="alert('hi');" on the Update column. When I make a change to the Update select list, the alert does pop up.
Can anyone suggest how I can implement the change to the associated Read value of Yes if the Update value chosen is Yes, for that particular row.
Thank you,
Laura

The complexity in this case is that you're using items in a report rather than standard page items.

Help with Select Lists

Hello, Oracle community. I'm a new developer fresh out of school and I'm working on an issue tracker project on Apex 2.1. I have a page where we create cases that involve various issues called in by our clients through our support center. This app is supposed to replace what the support center currently has.
My main problem is functionality. I have several select lists that redirect to the case creation page. I have conditions that allow several hidden fields to appear when certain values are chosen. We also have a couple of text areas for details and resolutions. The problem is that when we enter data into the text areas (CASE_DETAIL and CASE_RES) and escalate the case to a higher tier of support via redirecting select list, all text that was typed is cleared away when it redirects back to the page. All other select list values remain because they've already been redirected. How do I keep my text fields populated while preserving my select lists? The text areas are set to "Only when current..."
If there's any links that you guys can provide with detailed info on how to handle these types or problems (the documentation is a bit general) I'd greatly appreciate it. I'm still learning this stuff. :)
Dennis

Wow, thanks.
We had tried this before, but since we had email shooting off to our clients whenever the page was submitted, we went with the redirect. My brother (we're both working on this project) found the following topic while looking for this one:
Select list with Redirect => other page items are reseted
We had used the process to only send email when the CREATE button was pressed but completely missed the fact that we could do the same with the process row. The solution now is to switch all select lists to submit and make the process row conditional to only fire when the CREATE button is pressed. Now the page submits as much as it wants to, the text fields stay populated, and we don't get redundant emails and entries into the CASE table.
Thanks for the help. I hope to return the favor some day. :)

Help with copy list item workflow in SPD 2013

Hello
i just can't find anywhere to help me on the web with workflows, I am very new to this.
I have 2 custom lists.
First list, 3 columns:
'date received' (date)
'student name' (text field)
'hearing' (yes/no)
When a new item is added, I enter text for student name and the date. Then I set 'hearing' to yes or no.
If yes, I would like a workflow to copy the student name for to the second list.
In the second list, I have 2 columns (so far):
'student name' (text field)
'student number' (text field)
I just have no idea where to start to do this. Could someone please help?
Thanks.
Mel

Hi ,
If you mean that you don't want to create duplicate items in list2 when you edit the item in list1 mutiple time, you can try adding another "if" condition contained within your above "if" block to determin if the current
item "student name" equals to "student name" from list2, if yes then update the that item in list2, if no, then crate a new item in list2.
Thanks

IPhone - HELP with selecting a row and loading a specific webpage

Thee following code works to open different webpages...if i click on Row 0 then it opens the page...
http://www.webpage.com/iphoneapp/1.html
But I need each row selected to open an unrelated webage.
Since the title is different depending on the row that is selected, can I add another criteria within this code (i.e. if title = "@Joey" then self loadremotehtml..... if title = "@Billy" then selfloadremotehtml....
Where/How do I add this other variable? THANKS!!
else if([name isEqualToString:@"Band Blogs"]) {
MoreBioViewController2* bioViewController = [self.navigationController.viewControllers objectAtIndex:1];
self.title = [bioViewController.displayList objectAtIndex:bioViewController.selectedBioIndex];
[self loadRemoteHTML:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"http://www.webpage.com/iphoneapp/%d.html",bioViewController. selectedBioIndex+1] ];

Use a h:commandButton and the HtmlDataTable#getRowData().

Improper casting of bind in select list item?

Hi all,
In v3.1.2, I have a Select List item called P1_DEPT_FILTER where the LOV is:
Number of Columns          1
Display Null                Yes
Null display value           -- ALL --
Null return value
List of values definition     select DNAME, DEPTNO from DEPT order by 1
In a computation of another item on the same page, I have a SQL Query in the computation that contains a WHERE clause referencing the Select List item:
     AND (:P1_DEPT_FILTER IS NULL OR assigned_belt LIKE :P1_DEPT_FILTER)
The problem is that sometimes the computation query returns no rows. Using APEX debug and also dumping the session variables shows P1_DEPT_FILTER to contain the expected value based on what I selected, so I created a LOGON TRIGGER on the owner's database for the owner's schema to fire up a SQL Trace with binds. The bind variables for the computation query show "dty=1", which is a (n)varchar2 type, instead of the expected "dty=2".
My theory is that this improper casting is causing the computation to not work correctly, since running the computation query outside of APEX works perfectly.
I'm missing something here, but am stuck on where to continue troubleshooting. Thoughts?
TIA!
Rich

Hey Scott,
My apologies for not posting the exact SQLin my original post -- I tend toward obfuscation. In any case...
That computation and it's slight derivatives appear on computations for P3_ID, P3_ID_NEXT, and P3_ID_PREV, as well as the "Get Next or Previous Primary Key Value" process. Since the value returned for the P3_CHAMPION_FILTER Select List is "8" when I attempt to filter, I altered the P3_CHAMPION_FILTER for each of the 4 SQLs similar to this:
SELECT
    NVL(MIN(ID),0)
FROM
    vip_project.project_table
WHERE
    project_document IS NULL
    AND lead_team_charter_date IS NOT NULL
    AND (NVL(:P3_BELT_FILTER,0) = 0 OR assigned_belt = TO_NUMBER(:P3_BELT_FILTER))
--     AND (NVL(:P3_CHAMPION_FILTER,0) = 0 OR assigned_champion = TO_NUMBER(:P3_CHAMPION_FILTER))
    AND (NVL(:P3_CHAMPION_FILTER,0) = 0 OR assigned_champion = 8)And it works perfectly! Without a filter on Champion, the correct 56 rows meeting the criteria are available for navigation on the form. If I select the item in the P3_CHAMPION_FILTER that corresponds to the value of "8", only the 3 rows for that "champion" column are navigable. Here's what debug says about the P3_CHAMPION_FILTER field when I select the "8" item:
0.14: ...Session State: Saved Item "P3_BELT_FILTER" New Value="0"
0.14: ...Session State: Saved Item "P3_CHAMPION_FILTER" New Value="8"
0.14: ...Session State: Save "P3_ID" - saving same value: "1"
And the Session State:
100     3     P3_CHAMPION_FILTER     Select List     8     I
So, in theory, changing the "TO_NUMBER(:P3_CHAMPION_FILTER)" to "8" should have no effect, but it does. Baffling!
Thanks!

Selected list items to Word document

I found online many posts to generate a word document with all items included in a list.
But is is possible to have the generation triggered by the user and to include only a subset of the list items?

Hi ,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to generate a word document with selected list items in your SharePoint 2010.
You should look into the Word Control Toolkit, which uses the Open XML format SDK to achieve what you require.
The basic functionality is that you use the Edit Control Block on a selected list item to generate and populate a Word document using a template you can select from a drop-down list.
Here's some links to get you started:

Report with select list and link to call another report

Hi,
I am trying to do 2 reports (REPORT1 and REPORT2).
The first is a summary report (REPORT1).
This report will display sales figures for the year. Now, I need to have a select list in the result set that will have 2 options, depending on which option is chosen, I want to call REPORT2 with the select list as a parameter. How can I do this ?
Let me try to explain what I did.
I created REPORT1 on Page 100
SELECT YEAR, sum(YTD_SALES), APEX_ITEM.SELECT_LIST(1,'DEPARTMENT','Department;DEPARTMENT,Division;DIVISION') Drilldown FROM SALES_ANALYSIS WHERE YEAR > 2000
GROUP BY YEAR ORDER BY YEAR
I created 2 hidden items namely P100_YEAR and P100_DRILLDOWN
I also made the column YEAR as a link and specified both P100_YEAR and P100_DRILLDOWN as parameters to be passed.
Next, I created REPORT2
SELECT YEAR, DECODE(:P100_DRILLDOWN, 'Department', department, 'Division', Division) dept_div, sum(YTD_SALES) ytd_sales
FROM SALES_ANALYSIS
WHERE YEAR = :P100_YEAR
When I run Report 1, it's fine, when I choose either Department or Division from the Select List and click on the link to call Report 2, report 2 is displayed, but the value being passed for P100_DRILLDOWN is not correct and as a result, I am unable to get correct results for Report 2
Am I missing something ? Are there any alternate ways to do what I'm doing ?
Thanks,
Ashok

Hi Ashok,
The link definition will not know the value selected in the list as it is constructed only when the page is being rendered. You would need to create some javascript to handle this. I've done that here: [http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=267:182]
The link on the EMPNO column has been defined in the HTML Expression setting for the column instead of the Link section. The HTML Expression that I have used is:
<a href="#" onclick="javascript:doDrilldown('#EMPNO#',this);">#EMPNO#</a>And, in the page's HTML Header setting, I have added in:
<script type="text/javascript">
function doDrilldown(empno,group)
var g;
var p = group.parentNode;
while (p.tagName != "TR")
p = p.parentNode;
var x = p.getElementsByTagName("SELECT");
if (x.length > 0)
g = x[0].value;
var url = "f?p=&APP_ID.:183:&SESSION.::::P183_EMPNO,P183_GROUP:" + empno + "," + g;
document.location.href = url;
</script>When a link is clicked, the doDrilldown function is called passing in the EMPNO value and the "this" object (which identifies the object triggering the call). The function starts from that object and goes up in the HTML tag tree to the nearest TR tag (the row tag that the link is on) and then finds the first SELECT list item on the row and gets its value. It then constructs a URL using this and the EMPNO value and performs a redirect to the second page (page 183 in this example).

Increase value of Select List Item with a Button

Hi all,
I've got an apex appli which is working well.
In one report page I use a select list with a LOV, but I want to "enhance" this functionality:
I need a kind of button which increments the item-value of the select list by 1,
so that the user can easily skip to the next value of the LOV without scrolling thru the select list.
Unfortunately I dont't get it working. Has anyone an idea how to realize that?
thanks in advance
Frank

Hello Frank,
Assuming your select list item is called P1_SELECT, you can define an HTML button, next to the item, that will do the trick.
In the Post Element Text field of P1_SELECT, you can have similar code to the following:
<input type="button" value="Next Value" onclick="$x('P1_SELECT').selectedIndex+=1;" />Hope this helps,
Arie.

How to print out document list items (and with all comments!)

I was surprised to read that the standard print functionality doesnt support document items.

Thanks guys for trying to help me...
Gabriel, I not wanna do "a lot of trix" to get this out of iCal when it should be solved by iCal (from my point of view).
Dancing Brook, Yes I hope we will see that in the future. I am convinced that there is many of us out there who want to see that function in iCal, even if they not really missed it yet.
I have already sent a request to iCal feedback (hope they noted). Maybe they will if we are many doing so...

Trying to use Spry with Select List

I have a dataset that is static xml. .In the xml file I have
a node called categoreis and then repeating node of store name,
phone and address in that category. There are around 15 categories
and a total of 100 stores with address and phone. I can create the
select list and add the onchange event to tell Spry which row of
data was selected in the drop down. I do not understand how to
generate the detail region that shows the stores for that
particular category. Any help would be appreciated.

Always include the following information when asking a question:
<ul>
<li>Full APEX version</li>
<li>Full DB/version/edition/host OS</li>
<li>Web server architecture (EPG, OHS or APEX listener/host OS)</li>
<li>Browser(s) and version(s) used</li>
<li>Theme</li>
<li>Template(s)</li>
<li>Region/item type(s)</li>
</ul>

Help with opening Adobe Reader and downloading updates

I can not open Adobe .pdf files any longer (this started yesterday, prior to that I could open adobe files).
When I double click a .pdf file I get this notice on my screen: Windows cannot access the specified device path or file. You may not have the appropriate permission to access file.
So I went to the Adobe download site to download a new copy of Adobe. When I start the download I get this on the screen: The instruction at "0x0e3a0068" referenced memory at "0x0e3a0068." The memory could not be written. Then two options are listed: click OK to terminate or cancel to debug. So I click on cancel and I get this on my screen: Internet Explorer has closed this webpage to help protect your computer. A malfunctioning or malicious addon has caused I.E. to close this webpage.
I don't have AVG running, I do have avast but I've disabled it. I ran Registry Mechanic and an I.E. erasure program but nothing helps.
I have gone into I.E. and reduced the security level to its lowest state but no joy.
So, any ideas or suggestions on what's the problem and how to overcome it would be appreciated. Thanks, in advance, for your reply. Jim R.

Hi Mike..tried that as well but no joy. A friend of mine was looking at it all and noticed that it was an I.E. thing as far as not letting me redownload the reader so I went to Mozilla Firefox and I could download a new version but....whenever I attempt to open a .pdf file I get that message, "Windows can not open the specified device, path or file. You man not have the appropriate permissions to access the item."
Damn...this is irritating as I need to get to some of thos files as I need them for a Journal I'm working on as editor-in-chief.
It all worked just fine last Saturday but starting Monday when I was on my flight out to D.C. no joy.
Sigh...Jim R.

Set Default Value of Multi-select list item

I have a multi-select list item I want to default the value of to '%' (which is really '%null%') and have it selected. I tried setting default value of item, but it doesn't take '%null%'. I also tried a computation with a static of
:P507_ITEM := '%null%'; How do you get the default value set and selected?

Hi
Shijesh is right, you need to change your null return value and use that return value as your default. Try and use something of the same datatype as your real return values if you plan to use '%' to display all as it will make your queries simpler. eg.
Company A returns 1
Company B return 2
% returns 0
Then your query would be...
SELECT ...
FROM ...
WHERE company_id = DECODE(:P_COMPANY,1,1,2,2,0,company_id)
Hope this makes sense.
Cheers
